I have Apache server running on Centos5.4 Ec2 instance. Unfortunately while removing Bash from Centos, it also removed basic shared libraries.
Now afterward I can't SSH to that EC2 instance but Apache server is still running (I can access my site through URL).
Any idea how can I get the SSH access back? or can repair Centos Ec2 instance?
Thanks!
You can always contact the AWS support directly. They are very accommodating. send a message to them and they will recover your access, if it is doable from their end.
You may call, or you may send a message from your AWS account.

I am testing the free services from Amazon EC2. I followed the manual and was able to access the server. After one minute inside the server, it crashes and I have to close my console and reboot the instance.
By reading the guides from Amazon, I found that I should set the Route Table, which I was not able to find. Maybe the dashboard has changed.
I am not able to access my amazon ec2 instance via ssh using putty and git bash. The webpage that it is linked to is working and I am able to connect to it.
The ec2 instance is a ubuntu machine. All the security rules are set properly. I also found that the instance is not listening on port 22. Maybe that is the problem but then how can I access it without using Putty?
Any and all help will be appreciated.....
I am new with AWS, and recently spun up an EC2 instance, and installed elasticsearch on it. I can now access elasticesearch via http://localhost:9200 after ssh into the box, but I am a little stuck on how to access this from external.
What's the best practice if I would like to write some app to access this EC2 instance? And how can I configure it so it can be access externally?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
I am trying to setup an amazon ec2 instance for first time.
I've created one with ubuntu 10.4, managed to connect to ssh and installed mongodb, mysql, php and apache which need for my proyect(also python but it is already setup).
Then I associated an elastic ip to the instance, but when I try to open the IP, I can't. It gives timeout.
Could it be that the apache root is not where I think it is?(/var/www/)
You need to check the security group that is associated with the instance. Make sure that you open up port 80.
Also make sure that apache is started, and configured to start on boot.
If you're logged in, you should be able to use wget localhost to verify if apache is serving up pages.
I hired a freelancer to develop a PHP CI application hosted on Amazon EC2, and the app doesn't work. I am using Wowza with EC2 and S3. I have been seeing permission denied problems. I have Ubuntu and I'm trying to install a LAMP server and run public DNS on the instance. I have set up SSH as well.
I found the elastic IP of the instance we are running and used GoDaddy domain manager. I thought that simply pointing the domain to the instance would work. Do I have to change the nameservers on GoDaddy's side as well? Where would I find the right ones?
I have very little server-side understanding. I'm sure the solution is just a simple change, something like one line of code, a different user name or a different ID number. What do I need to do?
you should point your domain to your elastic ip of your EC2 instance. This should be done from where you host your DNS server. If you don't have one, you can change the settings inside the godaddy account to point to your DNS service.
